Since Friday is not a shave day for me, but I am excited about Adjustable April, I wanted to share my fun from last month. I had the extreme good fortune to participate in two shared razor pass-arounds. These are two of the most expensive razors I have ever tried. Both are wonderfully smooth, comfortable, and efficient razors. I was particularly impressed by the Tatara adjustable. For your viewing pleasure, the Tatara Muramasa and the Rex Konsul.

This scent easily brings back many memories of my youth especially those of my maternal grandfather. Another superb three pass shave with a NY blade, the Genco. They are such good razors and hold their edge very well. I did receive a minor crimson letting when a hit a sped bump, suddenly developing pimple, on my right cheek. Must be trying to turn back the clock. No worries, the alum took care of it. I hope you have a great day gentlemen.
I am looking forward to your more detailed posts Paul. I think it is important to reflect on why a shave was great or not so great and posting those ideas. It helps to reinforce better shave habits and it helps others to forgo some of the pitfalls of a bad shave.
Great shave to start the month. It's a no shave day for me, but will shave for our 30 DC LI Chapter tomorrow morning. I think that Artie has been crying to be let out of his box. I have neglected him and he wants to play. Lol!
Thank you....going from "Bordering On Excellent" to "Super Duper Excellent" in 24 hours can't be ignored.
